Crockpot Cooking

Tweet

Does anyone use those Reynold’s slow cooker liners? If not, you should - I think that was the best feeling every, lifting that dirty bag out of the crockpot and knowing I didn’t have to let anything soak, and didn’t have to scrub anything. Highly recommended! Here’s what I made yesterday for dinner:

Garden Vegetable Tabboleh Stew

  • 1 med onion, chopped
  • 2 carrots, cut in half longways and then sliced
  • 1 cup green beans, cut into 1 inch pieces
  • 2 green onions, sliced thin
  • 1 zucchini, sliced
  • 1 can chickpeas, drained and rinsed
  • 2 cans diced tomatoes with juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/8 tsp pepper
  • 1 box tabboleh mix
  • 1 1/2 cups water
  • 1/4 cup olive oil

Layer everything in the crockpot in this order: onions, carrots, green beans, zuccini, green onions, chick peas and tomatoes. Add salt and pepper. Sprinkle box of tabboleh mix (with seasoning) evenly over the top, then pour water and olive oil over tabboleh. Cook on low for 6 to 8 hours. Serve with sour cream and mint.

I skipped the sour cream and mint, and served it with tortilla chips.

Yum! And no clean up! Thanks to my handy crock pot liner!

i wish i had a crockpot. and the space to store a crockpot.

You can also use a dutch oven for a lot of slow cooker recipes. But crock pots are awesome. I have to keep mine in the garage, but that’s okay.

This recipe sounds great. I used to think of crock pots for winter foods, but they are even better in summer becuase you don’t have a stove/oven heating up your kitchen. I printed the recipe - I’ll skip the sour cream and mint too.

Deb,
Plus, you get to take advantage of all the summer veggies - like big zucchinis, not the little ones available in winter. I love healthy food disguised as comfort food :)
